| I have this exact problem; burning works fine, but I can't mount or play CDs! It's weird. |

just mount /dev/cdroms/cdromX
X is the number of the cdrom drive the first drive is 0 the second is 1 and so on.

| My /dev/cdroms/ is completely empty, and has been since I got the scsi side of it working. |

If you followed woolmonkey's advice -

Which I did an easier way to be able to burn with your burner is to
1.Recompile the kernel without IDE cdrom support
2. enable scsi emulation
3.enable cdroms in scsi settiong and generic scsi support
now your cdroms are treated as scsi and you should be able to burn with it.
Hope this helps it did work for me  |
step 1 is what killed your ability to mount regular cdroms.
leave IDE cdrom support enabled in the kernel. It _can_ coexist with SCSI-IDE emulation |

|
|
│ │ <*> Enhanced IDE/MFM/RLL
│ │ [ ] Use old disk-only driver on primary interface
│ │ <*> Include IDE/ATA-2 DISK support
│ │ [*] Use multi-mode by default
│ │ < > PCMCIA IDE support
│ │ <*> Include IDE/ATAPI CDROM support
│ │ < > Include IDE/ATAPI TAPE support
│ │ < > Include IDE/ATAPI FLOPPY support
│ │ <*> SCSI emulation support
It appears that I have both SCSI support and ATAPI CDROM support.
Still no /dev/cdroms/* |

Whoops. Okay, mea culpa.  I didn't have SCSI CDROM support enabled (didn't realize that it was a separate option).
Everything appears to work now. |

Heres an example below. Don't use QUOTES in menu.lst!!!!
bash-2.05a# cat /boot/grub/menu.lst
default 0
timeout 10
splashimage=(hd0,4)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title=seamonkey
root (hd0,4)
kernel /boot/bzImage root=/dev/hda7 hdc=ide-scsi
And heres my cdrecord -scanbus
bash-2.05a# cdrecord -scanbus

i have a similar problem, although cdburning works nice, when i try to mount my cdrom i get an IO error on the device, then the kernel panics...
im running the gentoo sources 2.4.19-r5, im not using r7 since i get alot of comipiling errors in that one....

I followed all the procedures and everything worked except I could no longer mount my cdrw. To fix this I had to recompile the my kernel with scsi cdrom support as a module (not built in). After I did that I "modprobe sr-mod". Then modified my fstab for my cdrw as follows
"/dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrw iso9660 noauto,ro,user 0 0".
( the file /dev/sr is created when the support is included as a module)
Then rebooted and I could then mount my cdrw.
I hope this helps some. |

There is no /dev/scd* file (I'm using devfs), there is only a file called 'generic' under /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0 and no /dev/hdd file of course.
What could I do to get things going? |
You mean, the CD reading capability of your CDRW? Is there not a "/dev/cdroms/cdrom1" ? |
